FTW.

I hadn't tried Chrome yet.... and probably won't until at least mid 2009. Giving it plenty of time to become as solid as possible.

--- Quote ---Sundar Pichai, Google vice president, stated that the browser will exit beta in January. Google, meanwhile, is exploring its distribution options and examining the various ways it might improve its market share. "We will probably do distribution deals,” Pinchai told The Times. "We could work with an OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) and have them ship computers with Chrome preinstalled." ...

... search giant intends to back Chrome with all of the massive resources at its disposal. "We will throw our weight behind it," said Pichai. "We’ve been conservative because it's still in beta, but once we get it out of beta we will work hard at getting the word out, promoting to users, and marketing will be a part of that."

... Microsoft has never had to compete for browser share against a company as large and powerful as itself. Once Chrome launches, that's going to change; Google has the money and the expertise to match Microsoft dollar-for-dollar and feature-for-feature.

Wake[of]theBunT:
ok i do not think google is as big a company as microsoft, but more expert in a browser, yes im assured they will be.

Still i like using opera and safari, actually i use most browsers.

Deed:
^Same.  I have IE7, Opera 9.5+, Safari, Firefox and Chrome installed here.  I should probably get rid of Safari and Opera, but I like having a lot of backup.

Rodney 1.666:
Well, I'm still using Chrome. I'm liking it so far, just for its speed.
Sure it's missing a few things... but it's just fast so that fact doesn't bother me. Give the browser some time.
